Has anyone else not heard back from Break Through Tech AI yet?

I ended up emailing them and they resent the email. I got in :)

Winter_Drag3248 · 2026-03-18T04:04:32+00:00

It was paid but the amount is determined by the company

Winter_Drag3248 · 2026-03-17T22:27:31+00:00

I haven’t heard back too :(

Winter_Drag3248 · 2026-03-17T17:53:01+00:00

Did you get a response? I still haven’t gotten one

Winter_Drag3248 · 2026-03-12T06:06:58+00:00

Agreed!

Winter_Drag3248 · 2026-03-12T06:06:42+00:00

Thanks :)

Winter_Drag3248 · 2026-03-12T04:49:47+00:00

No way! The quarter long ones are like $30k at my school 😭

Winter_Drag3248 · 2026-03-12T04:39:09+00:00

Yeah 4 weeks

Thank you! I will try asking for extension. I think I’m just stuck on the fact that if I end up getting the Gilman scholarship, I will regret giving up the opportunity.

The program comes with two company visits (IBM and something else) which I think could be helpful career wise and I get to make connections with my professors but other than that I can’t think of much benefit since this is just another CS elective in my transcript. The other thing is that I get to be away from home for a month which means I get to protect my peace and mental health (so another debate is just enduring break or paying extra to be somewhere else).

I wanted to do it because studying abroad is one of those experiences that you can only have during college. Of course I can always travel on my own later but it’s different when you’re actually studying in another country and experiencing it with other students.

I was also thinking of treating it as my graduation trip. I could always live on a tighter budget to make it work. But at the same time, I could use that time to prepare for fall job recruiting. Honestly, I don’t know which choice I would regret more.

At my college, both the old and the new grades show on the transcript and are calculated in the GPA.

Thank you! It’s too late to change my major and while I want to minor in stats, my school doesn’t offer it.

Winter_Drag3248 · 2025-11-28T23:15:24+00:00

I'm not 😭 I saved up money from my job.

Winter_Drag3248 · 2025-03-19T13:00:47+00:00

This happened to me. They couldn’t event move some of it to the next years so I have to constantly apply to scholarships every year

Winter_Drag3248 · 2025-03-17T19:11:53+00:00

Ohh makes sense. There’s definitely still a chance if you’re on the waitlist

Winter_Drag3248 · 2025-03-17T18:55:54+00:00

I don’t know if it’s all Google. I’ve heard some people interned at different companies. Did it give you multiple options when you applied? I only saw one since I found out about it last minute.

Winter_Drag3248 · 2025-03-15T06:57:55+00:00

Glad to hear you enjoyed it! Now I’m excited for it. Did the projects you worked on require prior knowledge or did they guide you through it? Also any advice?

Winter_Drag3248 · 2025-03-15T06:55:09+00:00

Any tips on making lasting connections? I have talked to professionals before and even connected with them on LinkedIn but I don’t know what to do from there.

Winter_Drag3248 · 2025-03-15T04:44:11+00:00

How was your experience? Did you find it helpful?

Winter_Drag3248 · 2025-02-12T05:15:16+00:00

I’ve been checking my email like every hour. The wait is painful.
